If you had $250,000 to spend on a collector car, at this particular point in time, what car would you buy? Many of the big money cars don't have a big margin for increased value.The GT is just starting to take off. I'm hoping the GT is the next Cobra.

I often let young admirers sit in the car and their parents take pictures, I can't believe the astonishment on their parts that I let them sit in the car.
